mandelbulber 1.05 for mac OS

here it is > sourceforge.net/projects/mande…
[thanks 2 Krzystof]

******little diary:

I am playing with a universal build of mandelbulber for ppc and intel but i still have a problem with X server (but the build is fine)-i am planning to build a 64 version of it as well.
Dunno if is really useful to build a 32/64 bit version for ppc..or building a version for OS 10.04 (i386 maybe?).
I see i cannot build a variant of it without X11 at the moment..

It would be possible and difficult to build an application bundle against gtk2 using macports..problem is that there are just few methods 2 do the task.
I SEE that the executable would be way 2 big (it's the same method used to build Gimp on mac OS-'the Lisa method' is called) AND (again) IMHO DOES NOT CHANGE MUCH. (:

Obviously there are many ways 2 build mandelbulber on mac and i want to try others -maybe in the future an xcode project could be created as well.

Creating a port file for mandelbulber is poZZible but manteining it is something else..installing the sw would be  easy as typing "sudo port install mandelbulber".


ON TOP OF THAT I should really buy a mac [and a pc as well]

update: preparing now for a 64 bit binary: [first control your EFI and boot 64 bit]
*usually snow-leopard is 64 bit mode and macports is 64 bit on snow-leopard so [eventually] all this is useless

    >ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | awk -F'"' '/firmware-abi/{print $4}'

if it says 'EFI64' it is ok, then

    >sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot
    'Kernel Flags' 'arch=x86_64'

boot

>cd /opt/local/etc/macports
>sudo pico macports.conf (change '#build  i386' to 'build_arch  x86_64')<CTRL O><enter>
>sudo port -f uninstall installed
>sudo port install gtk2

now I have to wait..

.dylibs are now 64 bit-but i (or "I") NEED gcc 4.6 and apple has here 4.0 [can't see here] or i have gcc GNU 4.4.1 [or something]

so now let's install gcc4.6:

>sudo port install gcc46

eh, DOES NOT WORK: I NEED 2 DOWNLOAD a copy of gcc-4.6.1.tar.gz somewhere and it's 89 MB,
and by reading macports's log i see there's something wrong [but for 32 bit is ok].
GMP/MPFR/MPC chains (headers and libs) are necessary

*************UPDATE
Ah yes! the same code is working for 64 bit and for 32 bit [kindof] and i'm using gcc-4.6.1 now [much better] so there's no need to change the code no-more!
